Conformant Example.

In this example we'll explain how to create applications to work with illume, considering space required for virtual keyboards, indicator and softkeys.

Illume is a module for Enlightenment that modifies the user interface to work cleanly and nicely on a mobile device. It has support for virtual keyboard, among other nice features.

Let's start creating a very simple window with a vertical box with multi-line entry between two buttons. This entry will expand filling all space on window not used by buttons.

elm_main(int argc EINA_UNUSED, char **argv EINA_UNUSED)
{
   Evas_Object *win, *btn, *bx, *en;

   elm_policy_set(ELM_POLICY_QUIT, ELM_POLICY_QUIT_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSED);

   win = elm_win_util_standard_add("conformant", "Conformant Example");
   elm_win_autodel_set(win, EINA_TRUE);

   bx = elm_box_add(win);
   evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(bx, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND);
   elm_win_resize_object_add(win, bx);
   evas_object_show(bx);

   btn = elm_button_add(win);
   elm_object_text_set(btn, "Test Conformant");
   evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(btn, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, 0);
   evas_object_size_hint_align_set(btn, EVAS_HINT_FILL, 0);
   elm_box_pack_end(bx, btn);
   evas_object_show(btn);

   en = elm_entry_add(win);
   elm_entry_scrollable_set(en, EINA_TRUE);
   elm_object_text_set(en,
                       "This is a multi-line entry at the bottom<br>"
                       "This can contain more than 1 line of text and be "
                       "scrolled around to allow for entering of lots of "
                       "content. It is also to test to see that autoscroll "
                       "moves to the right part of a larger multi-line "
                       "text entry that is inside of a scroller than can be "
                       "scrolled around, thus changing the expected position "
                       "as well as cursor changes updating auto-scroll when "
                       "it is enabled.");

   evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(en, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND);
   evas_object_size_hint_align_set(en, EVAS_HINT_FILL, EVAS_HINT_FILL);
   evas_object_show(en);
   elm_box_pack_end(bx, en);

   btn = elm_button_add(win);
   elm_object_text_set(btn, "Test Conformant");
   evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(btn, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, 0);
   evas_object_size_hint_align_set(btn, EVAS_HINT_FILL, 0);
   elm_box_pack_end(bx, btn);
   evas_object_show(btn);

   evas_object_resize(win, 240, 480);
   evas_object_show(win);

   elm_run();

   return 0;
}

For information about how to create windows, boxes, buttons or entries, look for documentation for these widgets.

But if you call a virtual keyboard, the window will resize, changing widgets size and position. All the content will shrink.

If you don't want such behaviour, you will need a conformant to account for space taken up by the indicator, virtual keyboard and softkey.

First of all, we need to set the window as an illume conformant window:

Next, we'll add a conformant widget, and set it to resize with the window, instead of the box.

   conform = elm_conformant_add(win);
   evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(conform, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND);
   elm_win_resize_object_add(win, conform);
   evas_object_show(conform);

Finally, we'll set the box as conformant's content, just like this:

   elm_object_content_set(conform, bx);
